I am looking to add an ADSL line at work . Up until now we have used a dedicated fiber line with a cisco firewall .

My question is . . . . What is a good ADSL router with similar security features to the cisco routers . Price is not an issue it is more about security . Are the $200 odd Linksys, D-Links good enough or are the Draytek models with "true firewalls" better . I am not so familiar in this area so any advice would be great .

Cheers in advance .

Dan

All you need is an old PC and a basic ADSL modem, an old P1 is more than ample and the free one port modem you get from ISP generally suffice. A Smoothwall box will be far more configurable than any sub $500 ADSL router. Pete O'Neil (6584)
